Honda Spree and Elite 50 Forums

Could someone please list the mechanical differences between a Spree and an Elite?

Leave it be, It's simple right now.

Call me a geezer, but I do sometimes wish the bystarter was manually controlled.

I'm with you.

taking the air skrew out won't make it go 40. I'd know, mine fell out while driving.....the only diff. i noticed was that the carb sounded different.......and then i had to wait a month fer a new air skrew.

Hey keithw, what other mods do you have planned for the Spree?

the only protective gear i wear is a helmet #1. It's mandatory here #2. I've hit my head a few times WEARING a helmet, and boy I tell ya, if it wern't fer the helmet, i dont think i'd be here right now, and if I was, I sure wouldn't be doing much. ALWAYS WEAR A HELMET...........chicks dig scars........

I put it all back together, and she ran. Now she runs like a charm. BUT, there's still one more problem....

compression is 113psi (which is the minimum acording to that manual i got off this site)


I dont recall hand-choking it, I guesse I'll try that, theres not much ealse to do

My Spree will NOT run. Here's what is what: 1-It will NOT fire. 2-It IS getting FUEL and AIR and SPARK. 3-I have CLEANED the carb. 4-I have CHECKED the reeds, they are GOOD. 5-NEW reed valve gaskets. 6-GAS and OIL are new. 7-COMPRESSION is GOOD. 8-PLEASE HELP!!!!!!!!!! I've not been able to drive th...

plug is perfect, the only mod is a drilled muffler
-even with the one on the fourth notch and the air skrew 1 1/2 out, it still bogs

OK, thanks,

OR, plant a few trees

Hey, what is the spark-plug torque? Just approx. doesnt need to be exact. Reason for asking is i have had so much unfortunate things happen to my Spree, that i really don't wanna have to get a new head if i strip it. It's already been out of service for over a month and a half!! I know that usually ...
